Any progress yet on "my big why" (below)? While I definitely understand the communication issues that Adam describes with .NET, I'm still amazed that that there is no respect for "ColdFusion as the defacto standard" when it comes to this item. One would think that - if it's not already hidden in there - there should be an attribute in the cffunction tag to return complex types (like queries) in the /same exact way/ that ColdFusion does in a web service.
These indexed layouts may make the .NET folks happy, but they are hell on the Flex folks. Alan Holden Adam Haskell wrote: > Typically it is for compatibility reasons.
